... The search for distant objects which can be both galaxies and quasars is one of the most important problems of observational astrphysics, because it allows one to determine cosmological parameters connected with the time of appearence and evolution of stellar systems, large scale structure of the Universe. ... Radio galaxies are important objects to be studied because they are sources of infrared-optical-ultraviolet continuum, emission lines and continual radio emission. ...

... Column 1 gives the object name from the Case or Markarian catalogs. ... For Markarian galaxies the errors of coordinates usually lie inside 2'' (Lipovetsky [ 1983 ]). Column 4 gives the eye-estimated apparent blue magnitudes according to the same sources. ... Other names of a galaxy we give in column 7. ... In column 3 we cite the original emission-line code of the galaxy for the strength of [O III ] doublet according to the Case catalog (s - strong, m - medium, w - weak). ...

We report MIPS photometry of 20 radio-loud quasars and galaxies at 24 and 70 ЮМm (and of five at 160 ЮМm). We combine this sample with additional sources detected in the far-infrared by IRAS and ISO for a total of 47 objects, including 23 steep-spectrum type I AGNs: radio-loud quasars and broad-line radio galaxies; and 24 type II AGNs: narrow-line and weak-line FR II radio galaxies. ... Thus, the measurements at these wavelengths can be used to test the orientation-dependent unification model. ...

... Bad Astronomy . ... Bitesize Astronomy . ... Last week's Snack talked about how black holes can affect the environment around them in such a way as to be very bright . ... It's a common misconception that black holes always have matter swirling into them. ... As this matter gets closer and closer to the black hole it piles up and a large, fairly flat disk forms. This is called the accretion disk , because matter from this disk accretes (that is, falls in) on the black hole. ... 2008 Phil Plait. ...

... A radio galaxy is a galaxy that emits an unusually big amount of energy at radio wavelengths. ... Inside of each galaxy with an active nucleus (radio galaxies are among them) there must be a system of a "central machine" responsible for the colossal amount of the emitted energy from radio to gamma ranges. ... Sometimes a radio source in an active galaxy may flare again if the needed conditions appear (a new portion of matter would fall into the furnace of the "central machine"). ...

... CentralProcessor 0.11 documentation . ... Here we detail the input parameters that cover the overall process control, and the switches to turn on & off different parts of the pipeline. Values for parameters that act as flags (ie. those that accept true/false values) should be given in lower case only , to ensure comparisons work properly. These parameters affect how the slurm jobs are set up and where the output data products go. ... SUBMIT_JOBS . ... User Parameters - Pipeline & job control . ...

In 2001, Westerbork observations of the disturbed galaxy named VV-29 (alias Arp-188, UGC-10214) showed that there is second smaller galaxy (named VV-29c) that appears behind the western side of the main body of the distorted galaxy. ... The galaxy was featured as the May 2, 2002 Astronomy Picture of the Day . ... When VV-29 had its 15 minutes of fame in May 2002, it appeared under the name "The Tadpole Galaxy," but based on the images above, we will always think of it as "The CHAINSAW"! ...

... The obtained results lead to the following conclusions: a) the heavy element enrichment had taken place in the Galaxy in a few bursts of its activity rether than in a continuons manner; b) these bursts occured during the callapse of the early Galaxy; c) the star formation had been inhibited in the time of the bursts; d) the metal enrichment did not proceed in the periods of star formation, between these bursts of activity. ...
